This is interesting. Where do you find this information? I just took a look
through LINT and found no r10 device anywhere, nor any mention of SMC
cards. My SMC EZ PCI cards were installed on the basis of being NE2000
compatible and they've always registered as ed devices. I've always thought
my network performance should be better, but fortunately my LAN is small
enough that it's not an issue.
